Trouble Aheasi,

When the appetite fails, and sleep grows
restless and unrefreshing, there is trouble
ahead. The digestive organs when healthy,
crave food, the nervous system, when Wig
orous and Tranquil, gives its possessor no
uneasiness at night. a tonic, to be eff
fectiye, should not be mere appetizer, nor
are the nerves to be strengthened and
soothed by the unalded sction OF a sedatlve
or narcotic. What is required is medi-
cine which invigorates the stomach and
promotes assimilation Of food by the sys.
tenn, by which means the nervous system,
as well as other parts OF the physical organ
ism, are strengthened. These are the eff
fects OF Hostettei's stomach Bittcrs med,
icine whose reputation is founded firmly iu
public confidence, and which physicians
commend for It's tonic, anti-bllious and
other properties. 1t Is used with the best
results in fever and ague, rheumatism,
kidney and uterine weakness and other
ma1ndias
